Nitrate-Induced Inhibition of Root Nodule Formation and Nitrogenase Activity in the Peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.)
The effect of nitrate in the culture solution (0.7, 3.5, 7.0, and 14.0 mM N) on the growth, root nodule formation and nitrogenase activity of the peanut (cv. chico) inoculated with Bradyrhizobium sp. was examined at early developmental stages. The amount of nitrogen derived from fixation and its per...
